Select images to process in a variety of ways: from within Windows or simply by searching!

Ribbon User Interface makes it easy to find the features you need.

Useful tips help reveal interesting functionality.

Images to be processed are added to the image list that can be viewed and organized in a variety of ways.

You can group images by folder or by type, search within the list, sort by name and date, change order and set titles (for web gallery), change thumbnail size, remove duplicates, move and copy images to other folders, preview, and much more!

You can use built-in search to add images you want if you do not know where exactly these images are located or if you have to select a portion of images from a large list and do not want to do it manually. Search for specific images using not just file name and size properties, but width, height, resolution and other attributes!

You can easily select images to be processed. You can do it by selecting desired files directly in Windows Explorer; you can add all readable image files in a folder; you can manually select images; or you can simply let the program search for images according to criteria you specify. The choice is yours! You can then save the image list you just created, so you will not have to add the same images again should you need to work with them in the future.

If you downloaded a lot of images from the Internet, or happen to have a large collection of images on your hard drive, chances are high that there are many identical copies of images just wasting valuable hard disk space! Finding and removing these duplicate images manually is a daunting, if not impossible, task! Duplicate Image Remover integrated into this program is the solution that can save you hours of time and megabytes of space!

The program supports more than 25 image formats, with even more formats coming soon (you can always let us know if you need support for another image format)! The program can read images saved in the following formats: BMP, JPG, GIF, PNG, TIF, SGI, PSD, WMF, EMF, PCX, DDS, TGA, RAW, CUT, DCX, LBM, LIF, MDL, PCD, PIC, PNM, PSP, WAL, ACT, PAL, and HDR. The program can save images in the following formats: BMP, JPG, GIF, PNG, TIF, SGI, WMF, EMF, PCX, DDS, TGA, RAW, PNM, PAL, and HDR.

Save time by accessing product’s functionality from within Windows environment. Simply select images in Windows Explorer (files in My Pictures folder for example), right-click, select the batch-processing option you desire, and let the program do the rest. Such close integration with Windows Operating System is entirely optional, and you can control it during installation.

Once you have selected the images for processing, you can watch slideshow composed of them where images will appear in a variety of creative ways. Unlike other slideshow programs, this program lets you zoom and pan the image from within a slideshow! When you zoom in, the slideshow would automatically pause, so you can examine the image in detail.

You can view selected images in Thumbnail and Detail views. Images can be grouped by folder or type and sorted by name, size, and date. You can also search for specific images within the list. In addition you can perform various file operations right within the image list: you can copy or move selected images to another folder, you can delete images, etc.

Specify unlimited number of actions to perform: resize, adjust contrast, watermark!

Easily browse for needed actions and templates using Office 2007-like drop-down galleries with descriptive tips and previews.

Compare original images and modified images (to which actions have been applied) side by side in live preview. See any changes that you make to the currently selected action be instantly reflected in preview!

Save time by taking snapshots of the same image to which different actions have been applied for future comparison. This may be useful if you need to compare the effect that two different action sequences will have on an image side by side.

You can easily add and remove actions or move them around to achieve the desired result. Most of the 90+ built-in actions have options that you can change. Simple actions, such as brightness and contrast adjustment actions have few options; while more complex ones, like text watermark action have many options.

Whether you are looking to resize images or watermark them, to adjust contrast or convert images to grayscale; with more than 90 built-in actions, you will find all the needed functionality in this product! You can easily apply several actions to an image in a sequential manner: for example you can resize the image first, and then adjust brightness, and there is no limit to how complex action sequences can be. Actions can be selected from Office-2007-like drop-down galleries, where they are organized into appropriate categories.<

You can save time and access previously created sequences of actions (including all customized options) using templates. There are built-in templates for watermarking and some special effects already in the program; but you can create as many additional templates as you want! Simply save the action sequence you just constructed as a template in one click; and it will appear in the drop-down templates gallery, so you can instantly access it in the future.

Take batch image processing to a truly professional level with layers! Layers make it possible to apply actions to either parts of the image or overlayed objects (like watermarks) that are then blended together with the original image using one of the many blend modes. With more than 20 color blend modes, advanced alpha-blending, size and positioning options, layers let you create very complex and impressive effects.

As you are creating a sequence of actions to be applied to selected images by arranging actions within a sequence and changing their settings, you may want to know how the changes you make would affect the resulting image. Live preview serves exactly such purpose – it instantly reflects any changes you make to the action sequence, so you can compare the original image and the processed image side by side. You can zoom and pan images in preview as you like, as well as view different parts of the image quickly using handy pop-up navigator.

Alpha Channel Support

Work with 32-bit images seamlessly, as the product has native support for alpha channel, so unlike with other products, no transparency is lost when the images are processed. Not only do you get the benefit of preserved transparency, but alpha channel support in the product also allows you to create different blending and watermarking effects, resulting in truly professionally-looking images!

Compare with Snapshots

Save time by taking snapshots of the same image to which different actions (or same actions but with different settings) have been applied for future comparison. This is useful if you need to compare the effect that two different action sequences will have on an image side by side. There is no limit to how many snapshots can be taken – take as many as you need!

Save results in image format of your choice even more quickly if you have multi-core CPU!

Select destination folder, file naming pattern, image format, and other settings that program will use to save processed images.

Image processing progress is reflected in detail and you can cancel it at any time. The program will take advantage of dual- and multi-core CPUs and process images faster!

The log window outputs relevant processing information.

Process Images Quickly

After you have selected the images to be processed and specified what actions the program should perform, the program can begin to process the images. It will process images faster if your computer has a dual- or multi-core processor, or if it has several processors installed.

Convert Image Formats

You can easily use Batch Image Processor as image converter. You can simply skip the second step and not specify any actions to be performed; and in the final step select the desired image format in which the images will be saved. The program can convert images in these formats: BMP, JPG, GIF, PNG, TIF, SGI, PSD, WMF, EMF, PCX, DDS, TGA, RAW, CUT, DCX, LBM, LIF, MDL, PCD, PIC, PNM, PSP, WAL, ACT, PAL, and HDR to images in these formats: BMP, JPG, GIF, PNG, TIF, SGI, WMF, EMF, PCX, DDS, TGA, RAW, PNM, PAL, and HDR.

Rename Files

You can specify exactly how you want the program to name image files after images have been processed. You can let the program use original file name entirely, use original file name in addition to some static or dynamic text, or create entirely new file name based on either static or dynamic text or both. Naming possibilities are endless!

Save time and let software create nice web galleries of your images for publishing on the web!

Specify gallery title, rows and columns count, thumbnail size, and other options the program should use to make web gallery.

See exactly how the generated web gallery will appear in a browser and navigate it freely in the same window.

Create Web Galleries

Publish your processed images online in the form of nice browsable web gallery! Save hours of precious time by leaving the boring work of creating all HTML code to Batch Image Processor’s Web Gallery Maker! It will generate a simple fast-loading web gallery with thumbnails, titles, and navigation in seconds!

You can specify how many rows and columns a gallery page should contain, thumbnail size and file type, gallery title, and other options. Galleries can be styled using one of the built-in CSS themes, or you can easily apply your own CSS theme. There is also an option to control navigation, as well as page generation for every image (versus a direct link to the image file from thumbnails page).
